Which Republican opponent would Dem's favor in 2008?


From the perspective of the Democrats, who would be best to emerge as the Republican nominee?

UPDATE: Twin columns from ABC News.com take opposite views on this question.
One posits that a McCain/Giuliani ticket would be the Dems "worst nightmare", while the other says it would be a Dem "Dream Team" for them to defeat.

Avoiding fringe flakes like Brownback, Tancredo, Hunter, or even Gingrich for the moment, who do you think Hilary would have the best chance of defeating in '08, Romney, Giuliani, or McCain, and why?

Which do you think Obama would have the best chance against and why?

Or which do you think the Dems would do best against irregardless of who they nominate?

Rudy's got some mo going on for the moment, but of course that could evaporate in the twinkliing of an eye and McCain seems to be on a downward spiral for the past few weeks. Romney essentially hasn't left the gate.

As a Dem, (or if you were one) who would you like to see win the Republican nomination.


And yes, that's really Rudy on the right.

Thanks Dem Gorilla, but I specifically took Brownback and Tancredo off the table.

Neither has a shot, in my estimation, though it would be a great ticket.... for Dems.

hillary will not be the nominee so that is moot point.
It's who would obama have the most fun against.

Interesting comment Anon above... but with a little effort, you might actually tell us why you feel that Hillary has no chance.

I, as of this moment (ask again in an hour) have a feeling that it's just the opposite, namely, that Hillary will be nearly impossible to stop.

Just a gut feeling based on everything I've seen and read, and the fact that the greatest politician of our age and the most liked ex-president happens to be her husband, which can't hurt.

Bill enjoys far more support in the black community than even Obama.

Clinton is very possible to stop. Watch her speech yesterday and compare it with Obama's. One person is authentic, the other is as phony as a $2 bill.

I'll let you guess which one it was...

I watched both speeches on Sunday...and neither one did bad.
